Synchronizer Parts InspectionS7RS0B5206021
Check clearance “a” between synchronizer ring (2) and
gear (1), each chamfered tooth of gear, synchronizer
ring and sleeve, then determine parts replacement.
Clearance “a” between synchronizer ring and gear
Standard: 1.0 – 1.3 mm (0.039 – 0.051 in.)
Service limit: 0.5 mm (0.019 in.)Put the 2nd gear synchronizer outer ring (1), inner ring
(3) and the cone (2) together and then measure the step
difference between the outer ring and the inner ring. And
also check each chamfered tooth of gear and
synchronizer ring and replace with new one, if
necessary. Also, check gear tooth.
Difference “b” between synchronizer outer ring and
inner ring
Standard: 1.0 – 1.3 mm (0.039 – 0.051 in.)
Service limit: 0.5 mm (0.019 in.)
